Holiday outfit ideas to match your destination
STAYCATION:
Cornwall
Holidaying at home means layering is key (can we ever trust those weather gods?). Make lightweight knits your friend and pack a couple of cardigans to see you through a breezy summer day. ‘A more casual wardrobe allows you to have fun with color and accessories,’ says Lynda. ‘Flat sandals and a printed tee keep you comfy for mooching round the shops and skimming stones on the beach, while a relaxed-fit dress can be worn for sightseeing with trainers, then fancied up with jewelry for drinks.’
BEACH HOLIDAY:
The Algarve
Sunshine shades and a versatile, relaxed-fit dress will have you all set for warm days and dining outdoors. A roomy beach bag is obviously a must (fill with sun cream, beach towel, fun purse, spare bikini and a trashy read), and a hat for midday meandering. A wide-brimmed style is an instant way to elevate a day look to new levels. ‘Pair a floaty lightweight knit top with structured bottoms and elegant flatform sandals for an easy evening look,’ says Lynda.
CITY BREAK:
Rome
The city of love and passion cries out for Bond-girl-style slip dresses and luxurious monochrome printed co-ords for browsing round boutiques. ‘This stylish city loves a more polished look, so be sure to add some flair with oversized Sophia Loren-inspired sunglasses and metallic gladiator sandals (what else in the home of the Coliseum?) for daytime glamour,’ recommends Lynda.
STAYCATION:
Lake District
‘Denim and stripes lend this holiday capsule wardrobe a chic nautical feel that makes mixing and matching trousers and tops easy peasy,’ says Lynda. If you’re planning a busy break complete with sightseeing, pack a handy backpack and super-comfy Gola trainers for when you’re out enjoying the views. ‘Golas have a chunky midsole,’ says Lynda, ‘So as well as looking great, your feet will be happy at the end of the day!’
BEACH HOLIDAY:
Greek islands
Greece is one of the most picturesque and Instagram-worthy spots this summer, so make sure you’re ready for your selfie with a capsule wardrobe as good as the view.
‘Stick to a color palette of blues and whites for tops and shorts, and add a bold sunshine-coloured dress and highlights of gold for those holiday-night outfits,’ suggests Lynda. ‘A lightweight tote for day trips and a pretty beaded necklace for cocktails at sunset will take up minimal room in your case.’
